On many structures we will perform much of the sealing and repairs (secondary gaps and holes) before the exclusion season begins. Trapping and removal of a bat in Texas can be tricky and should never be attempted if the bat was found in a room where people were sleeping. Housing bats on your property is an effective and natural means of insect control. While at your property, Algoa bat control will identify the entry points bats are using to access your home and make recommendations to exclude them permanently. Often you will see them head toward a section of the house and even disappear. Nuisance bats suspected of having rabies should always be left for professionals to remove.

HOW DO I GET RID OF BATS FROM AN ATTIC?Bat removal is not a simple task. Note: Installing a bat house is NOT going to solve a bat problem in your home. There is no effective bat repellent for example that can do the job easily. The proper way to get rid of them is to exclude the colony – seal off 100% of possible secondary entry points on the home and remove all of the bats from the building safely. They do not want to be in your home, but are simply reacting to cool air currents on instinct. It is often very challenging, and it must be done just the right way. An amateur attempt, by someone with no experience, or worse, a pest control company that uses bat poison, could result in disaster – dead, rotting bats, and bats swarming throughout the walls and the home. If it is not the birthing season, you can do a bat removal project.
